All Is Not Lost

Today challenge yourself
Go help someone else
Everyone should encourage or motivate
Especially our youth before it is too late
Help cultivate and direct their path
Let’s mentor them in sports, writing, music, life, and math
Everyone of us can use direction
I think the main problem with our youth is no leadership or affection
Instead of pointing the finger and judging 
Open your heart to care and a ear to listen
The bible teaches us that is a part of wisdom
When you love others your heart doubles in rhythm
Now days our youth seem to have a lot of animosity and tension
Not all kids are worried about doing drugs and carrying weapons
All this has to be done right now at any cost
Remember with prayer and hope “All Is Not Lost”

I love the positive message this poem has If each one of us took the time to help one child, what a difference we could make. For some, it could start in their own home. But for some kids, it will take someone outside to make a difference in their lives. Bless you for encouraging that idea! Carrie
